Od., posted 12s. Od. BY JAMES GEORGE BEANEY, F.R.C.S., Late Surgeon to the Melbourne Hospital, and to the Royal Victorian Artillery Regiment, formerly Surgeon to the 3rd Royal Lancashire Regiment of infantry in the Mediterranean, and Staff Surgeon to the Turkish Army during the War in the Crimea. " Spermatorrhoea, impotence, and sterility are subjects of much greater practical importance than has been conceived by many, and often involve the happiness and perpetuation of families. Yet have they, by a sort of professional prudery, been either entirely overlooked by medical writers, or very imperfectly discussed, and thereby relinquished to the irregular practitioner or to the entirely unqualified empiric. In the present era of high refinement and of luxurious if not vicious enjoyments, and under the influence of noxious plans, and systems of education, instances are very numerous for which medical advice is required for the removal of the morbidly disqualifying conditions about to be considered, but which is not resorted to so frequently as it ought to be. Since advice is thus often necessary, the ability of those from whom the community have a right to expect it, and that too of the most judicious kind, should be equally great in providing it. There is every reason, also, to believe that it would be oftener sought after if the subject were known to be more fully entertained by the duly qualified members of the profession."— (Dr Copland's Medical Dictionary, Vol. II.) Of Dr. Beaney's work " The Generative System" it may be honestly said that were it a subject-matter more generally known, many moral and social benefits would be the result to the human race. Physiology is a branch of science "tabooed" by mock modesty. But the neglect is terribly avenged by the slighted study. The spretce injuria forma, has (in this instance of Physiology) reared a brood of ills which it is fearful to contemplate. A sound knowledge of the leading tenets of Physiology is indispensable to the principal of a boarding school. We entirely agree with Mr Beaney when he remarks that " the neglect of physiological education in schools is to be condemned, on the ground that it deprives boys of material information which would be of eminent value to them in the perilous period of approaching puberty ; and there can be no question but if information could be imparted in such a manner as would not shock the moral feelings, it would not only dispel the cloud of ignorance and misapprehension as to the most important physiological truths, in the minds of the young, but would promote a healthier and manlier tone."— Australian School Revieiv, Sept. 1873. Dr. Beaney's New Work.—This gentleman has contributed another very valuable volume to the medical literature of the colony, on a subj ect of vast importance to the most vital interests of the present and future generations. The subject is one which must recommend itself to the serious consideration of every philanthropist, and though it is one we are precluded, from its delicate character, from treating upon to any great extent, in our columns, still we cannot refrain from remarking that this gentleman, holding a high position in his profession, has stepped forward to fill the breach long open to the most unscrupulous imposters, who have entailed, probably, on a portion of the human family, more misery and suffering than the little good they have done or may do by mere chance can ever counterbalance. We have to acknowledge the receipt of a copy o" the work, and would urge upon those who take an interest in this science, and in the welfare of a people, to obtain a copy at the earliest opportunity ; they will find it instructive and deeply interesting. —Border Post, Albury, Dec. 28,1872. The Generative System, and its Functions in HEALTH and Disease. —This work is a valuable addition to that class of medical literature which has, through false delicacy, been neglected by medical men of standing and position, and therefore used and abused by charlatans. The volume contains 320 pages and forms a suitable companion to the other work' Parents will find most valuable information in it which may aid them in rearing up a family in a healthy state, when without such knowledge they might see their children perish without ever suspectin"- the cause. —Tasmanian Cornwall Chronicle, 4th Dec 1872. "The Generative System," by Dr. Beaney, will be found of great value by many persons. We agree with the author, that "there has, until within the last few years, been a morbid delicacy in the public mind with reference to books of this kind," but it is passing away, and although they will necessarily be restricted in their circulation, they cannot but be of great advantage to the colonist. The subject is treated very fully indeed, and cases from his own extensive practice, as well as'from that of others, are adduced illustrative of the principles advanced by the author for the guidance and instruction of his readers.— Crcstoich Advertiser, Jan. 8, 1573. Mr. Beaney occupies so high a rank in his profession, and is so generally regarded as an undoubted authority on matters of this nature, that his opinions entitle him to every respect, while his boldness and fearlessness in stepping forward to the relief of suffering humanity, gives him a claim upon our gratitude. The " Generative System, and its Functions in Health and Disease," is the title of another volume from the pen of the same talented author. This work has been written with a desire to alleviate much of the misery caused by imperfect knowledge of the functions of the organs of reproduction. To those not familiar with this important subject, it is clear that definite information of a physiological character will be found of inestimable advantage, by supplying intelligent guidance in the conduct of sexual life, and to those we advise the perusal of so valuable a book. — Marlborough Express, Feb. 22, 1873.
